I want to Create RAR File in .Net (Not Zip File).

your solution is for .Zip File

Hi,

You neither want to use Rar nor winrar!

The only option here is to contact winrar team- http://www.rarlab.com/wgmbh.htm

I knew this solution. i already tell in my Question. i don't want to use RAR and WinRAR

i required .Net Library.

Hi,

There is none available. That's why I ask you to contact winrar team.

I've requested that this question be deleted for the following reason:

did not get any solution.

There is no solution... Best suggestions were provided! Auther just want to use a paid tool service without using the it.

i asked .Net Solution Not WinRar / RAR. i already cleared in My Question.

I've requested that this question be deleted for the following reason:

Did not get Solution as per my question.

And that is what I cleared in my answer... There is no solution available.

There is BUT not with .net you have to contact the programs author since it is a proprietary algorithm and the author likes to get paid. Sometimes the correct answer is that there is NO answer and we will keep objecting until you understand this.

I asked clearly in MyQuestion.

i required .Net Solution then why are you wasting my time ?

I am not wasting your time. Sometimes the answer is NOT what you want i.e. It Can't be Done is an acceptable answer.

    Private Sub RemovePassword(Filename As String, Password As String)
        Dim WinrarPath As String = "C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe" 'Could put in configuration.
        Dim ExtractCmd As String = String.Format("X -p{0} *.* C:\temp\extract\", Password)

        Dim p = Process.Start(WinrarPath, ExtractCmd)
        p.WaitForExit()
        'Rename old rar file as .old
        IO.File.Move(Filename, Filename & ".old")

        Dim RecreateCmd As String = String.Format("A ""{0}"" C:\temp\extract\*.* -ep1", Filename)
        p = Process.Start(WinrarPath, RecreateCmd)
        p.WaitForExit()

for the following reason:

i forcefully accepted this code as answer.

Please Delete this Question.  because i did not get solution as per my question.

What Kalpesh has answered was not exactly the question... He has clearly mentioned that winrar.exe or rar.exe should not be used.

Hence, the answer is not acceptable.

I've requested that this question be deleted for the following reason:

i want to delete the question.

Kalpesh does not want to assign any answer as a solution.

I would ask the moderators do the right job and assign the points to right answer.
